2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX FQ 360

Just another pointless version. If I had to decide I'd make the base one a really mad one. But why do we need a zillion different Evos?

Variety is good. I like Evolutions, but I like the STI better. Why would they make a weaker version from the FQ-400? I was expecting them to make an even crazier version. I love those crazy Brits (like Jeremy Clarkson).

Question: Why Britain only?

'Cos wer'e special.

I also could be to combat Prodrive's Subaru specials.

Get rid of the giant spoiler, and you have yourself a car for me.

Get rid of the giant spoiler, and the car will probably have to go awry performancewise.

Yes variety is good, but look line-up of the Evo IX in britain:

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX FQ-300 - £28,039
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX FQ-320 - £30,039
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX FQ-340 - £33,039
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX FQ-360 - £35,504

Do we really need 4 different Evos only separed by 20bhp each? If it was me I'd only be doing the 300 and the 360.

What are you talking about? The British have everything between germanic, norman, french, and celtic attributes! It is so generic!

But we are the only place to be like that, hence the special. Also this is the only place where they could charge £2500 for 20hp more.

Get rid of this cheap interior.

And why do they have to look the same? Evolution 1-3 look the same, 4-6 look the same, and 7-9 look the same. Every new bumper they put on they gotta name it differently, so it doesn't really define "Evolution". Bad name for a cheap car that only gives looks and performance. Seriously that interior is cheap and ride is uncomfortable.

Impreza please.

What happened to the FQ-400? Did you miss that version too? I'd rather have more powerful versions of the Evolution (if that's possible) and bring them to the states. You're right about the close power gaps though.

Maybe 300bhp, 350bhp and 400bhp would be enough. This way performance improvements would be noticeable. Becuase why pay an extra £3,000 for a tenth of the 0-60 time...?

Even though it is dull, it technically is evolution... where a species will grow in leaps and bounds, and sometimes in very slight increments.

FQ-360 Is Cool Mitsubishi Evolution Will Rock Forever!!!

Ok Tony.

I like Mitsubishi Lancer's but then again i like almost every car!

They need to put a front mount intercooler on it and get rid of that stupid hood scoop already. It's seriously tacky.

We know it's tacky. But we poor Subaru pilots (or at least all that I've met) have a pretty ****ed-up sense of style, and I'm included in that indictment.

In Arkansas, there was a big fratboy movement among our youth towards Japanese hot-rods and M3's and the like. That blew over as soon as the retards started wrapping their R-32's and EVO's around trees. That leaves the geeks, like me, who don't give a **** if the car's got a scoop or wing, or if I look like a complete child when I drive it, and the losers, who actually think that the wing and scoop are "cool."

I reckon that the intercooler on the wrx is there on top for some reason (albeit one I'll never understand) and the wing very likely actually does make usable downforce at speed (Mine's very stable 130-150).

I just like to drive the thing, tacky pink stickers, yellow wheels, ridiculous wing, and utterly childish hood scoop included.
Cheers.
